Summary: Brilliant CD
Comment: I purchased this album as a gift for my daughter for Christmas, and listened to it to make sure the CD played ok.
I have to say that I loved it straight away and is one of the best albums I have heard in a while.
I love it especially turned up really loud whilst doing the ironing, I must now listen to other Pink Albums....

Summary: TH!CK
Comment: The hit single off this album really got stuck in my head, mainly because someone threw a sharpened copy of it at me in a record store. I decided to buy a copy of the single on the strength of the fact I could not get it out of my head! (without opening the arterie it had lodged itself in and causing me to bleed to death). I assume this is why this album is so popular with angry disfigured teenage girls and also boys that need to tell their parents something very important.

Summary: disappointing
Comment: Was looking forward to this album so much, but it was sadly a let down, it is not Pink's best form, the main song we call know by now so what grates on you after a few times and the only song on the album I liked was please don't leave me it felt real the rest felt I hate to say it but sadly false, it is missing that essence that I have come to know/love/admire in all of Pink's past albums lucky for me I still hold out SOME hope for the next album but this for me is a turkey! Could of done so much better, felt like a cash in due to her personal life and goes against everything she claims to dislike/hate about showbiz etc this feels like a cash cow I would suggest trying Paramore I have heaps of hope for this one she has a very promising future one to keep eye on.

Summary: Pink's Back With A Fantastic Album
Comment: I have all of Pink's albums but this album to me is her best yet. All her songs are great here but, the song that really means a lot to me is "I Don't Believe You" this song alone is very moving. Pink has a great voice and does not sound like a man which another reviewer remarked about. If you haven't bought this yet then please do, you will not be disappointed. Pink's back with an amazing album.

Summary: She Just Gets Better & Better
Comment: Not many artists can produce 3 top selling albums and then top them with something that is all together in a different league. Not many artists can have such a wide appeal whether you're 16 or 60. Not many artists can produce an album with lyrics so very personal without sounding self absorbing. Well Pink has done all of those. Whether you want straightforward rock, dance music or stunningly beautiful ballads (no Dion/Carey warbling here), combined with edgy almost bluesy vocals, this album has it all. Frankly, this is a classic.

Whilst easily one of the most distinctive female pop vocalists of the last ten years, with her hot-headed persona and torching rock vocals barrelling through empowered songs both infectious and tender, P!nk did step back into line somewhat for more one-size-fits-all last album I’m Not Dead. Her voice aside, there was little pull her apart from her peers or to suggest she’d ever again go on to release anything as definitive as her breakthrough album M!ssundaztood. But whether driven by young pretenders like Katy Perry making a grab for her crown or by that perennial emotional motivator--break-up (she was divorced between albums)--Funhouse utterly redeems P!nk. From the front cover through most tracks on the record she stokes the wild-child inside herself that made her famous in the first place, but in most examples there is also evidence of a fostering maturity, whether in the crystal beauty and depth of ballads "Glitter In the Air" or "I Don’t Believe You" or the firm-handed command of more built-up tunes like the Red Hot Chili Peppers vs. Joan Jett coarseness of "Sober" or sassy rocker "Boring" that somewhat improbably combines The Dandy Warhols’ "Horse Pills" and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ "Get Ready For Love" as though delivered by the Pussycat Dolls. And maturity aside, bold first single "So What" and future-funk swing dance "Bad Influence" are about the catchiest, and indeed gutsiest, things she’s delivered in years. --James Berry
